@Ann Bens, that was my thought, but the graphic/text appears to be created by typing with the text tool, and I don't see how that could be opaque. Even if the background was enabled, it would only make the text box opaque.   I'm wondering about an effect that is looking at V3?   @knbstewart, If you go into the nested sequence, and add the text tool text there, does it block the underlying clip?   Stan   ...

@Jakeyosaurus,   I think I see what you mean, but I have a simple mouse that does not do click-hold-scroll well. I have no objection to having the option you want.   But a) I prefer clicking in position 1, then shift click in position 2 to select what I want and b) click drag moves at a speed I can control well.   Note that any selection in the transcript is only by whole words.   Stan   ...

@Theresa Rostek,   I finally had a chance to play with this. The shortcut is there and works as intended.   It is under the Graphics and Titles menu option in the Application section, and appears to work when the focus is on the Timeline or the Properties panel. It does not work in the Captions tab of the Text Panel. Nor does it work if the focus is on the Program or Source monitors (and various other panels).   @Ashton35889541g7iz,   Upvoted. I agree with Theresa that the current shortcut function can be a timesaver, but I also think some users would like the shortcut to operate from the Captions tab.   But since you are working from the Timeline, the current shortcut is perfect.   A workaround if selecting captions from the caption tab is to also set shortcuts to change focus from the Text panel to the Properties panel. So select one or more captions in the Text panel, use a shortcut to switch to the Properties panel, execute the shortcut for Upgrade caption to graphic, then shortcut back to the Text panel.   Stan   ...

@Untold Entertainment Inc.,   Upvoted although I can argue pro/con on whether it is a bug per se. At a minimum it is frustrating that there is not more control. But captions are not designed for single word output - until you use the increasingly common one word/animated captions!   Thanks for focusing on this. I had not tested for some time. At the moment, I am in PR Beta 25.3.0.34.   I agree that the best option for getting one word caption segments is Min characters 7, Min duration 1.2, and Single lines.   In a 3:46 sample that I have used for testing in several versions with a horizontal/landscape frame, I get a very high percentage of single words and zero captions that are not single line. But there are many two word exceptions ("a software" or "at Adobe") and a few short phrases ("I had a bunch of them").   But there is a lot of clean-up for a strict one word style.   See my comments about "each option cannot be primary" here: https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-discussions/create-captions-minimum-duration-in-seconds-being-completely-ignored/m-p/13987771#M523835   Stan   ...

@Israel Bonequi,   > unfortunately the issue i am having seems to be directly related to AE which is the workflow i have been relying on for the past many years. As soon as i bring a live AE comp to Premiere, the captions will not behave as captions any longer, but as permanently enabled subtitles.   That link was for CLwill related to mogrts.   The AE issue I'm addressing is the effect of an AE comp in a VIDEO track on subtitles/captions in a CAPTION track. If that is what you are saying, I agree completely.   Stan   ... View more

@Joede28197261mapu,   @mattchristensen has given you the bottom line.   I filed bugs on this when first introduced and could not understand why it would not work. Eventually I realized that it was, in fact, working as intended: these text-based editing bulk deletes are deleting video, audio, and transcript from a SEQUENCE not from the SOURCE clip, because it should not be destructive to the original source clip.   A workaround is to put the source clip in a sequence, make the changes, then nest that sequence where you want it. But for most workflows, the function as designed works fine.   Stan   ... View more

@Israel Bonequi,   Thanks for reporting the relevance of the AE dynamic link. I reported 8/20/24 that I could not replicate the AE problem, but I sure can now. I did not report there, but for that test, I was using PR release 24.5.0.   I tested now in Release 25.1.0 (PR, AME, and AE) and Beta 25.3.0 (PR Build 27, AME Build 26, and AE Build 23). Win 10.   I created a simple sequence: single 30 second clip, cut at about 10 seconds; created transcript and subtitle format caption track. I selected the 10 second section and "replace with AE composition." I added a simple AE animation, saved, and returned to PR. I exported as mp4 with captions set to Sidecar/srt, and in the PR export preview I can see that the captions will still burn-in. I completed the export directly from PR and queued to AME, and both produce a sidecar AND burned in captions. I confirmed this by importing to PR. In AME, preferences are set to import natively.   A workaround is to Render and Replace the AE composition in PR. I could not test this in the Beta because I was getting a media offline error for the composition in PR.   Stan       ... View more

@Andrés Felipe Gualdrón,   I suspect you have EBU, Australian, or Teletext subtitles that limit the caption parameters. We can see the "single height" option. Do you need to use that subtitle format? If not, change to Subtitle format and you'll have a lot more control for burn-in subtitles. But you'll be limited to SRT sidecar export with little control over style export.   Stan   ... View more

@Shaners77,   Thanks for the screen recording. I can't find a way to create what you are seeing.   I get the correct behavior whether I have something selected or not, but I can't tell what you have selected when you start. The name of the selection is cut off in the view you recorded. The sequence name is in square brackets; is that the way you named it? But the selection we see is Sequence name and ellipses to show the rest of the label (the item in the sequence that is selected). In any event, I can't get the wrong result no matter what i select to start.   Create a new test sequence. Put nothing in it. Select the pen tool. Click 3 places. You will see nothing in Effect Controls until you click and create a graphics object. What happens?   Stan   ... View more

I would get a hang with that error. And the PR UI would just be unresponsive boxes.

@analytical_fighter2993,   You'll see similar reports over multiple versions. Some reports were user error (the export was actually correct, but a preexisting srt was being used by VLC player so it looked like they were burned in). Some earlier reports were bugs that were fixed.   The latest bug identified occurs when there is a mogrt at the beginning of the sequence. I missed the post identifying this, and do not see information on whether the bug has been fixed in Beta or not. I have not attempted to replicate. https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-bugs/can-t-export-subtitiles-with-sidecar/idc-p/15169527#M46133   If this is your problem, the workaround is what you are doing. Burn-in (captions enabled), no burn-in (captions disabled), SRT export via Caption tab 3 dots menu (styling on by default) or via File -> Export -> Captions (styling can be turned off).   @jamieclarke Do you have any further information?   Stan       ...

@mafaldarebelo,   Yes, that clarification is very helpful.   Are you using any subclips or linking any audio with video? I think it was subclips that produced inconsistent results with exporting/copy/pasting or similar.    I'll try to test the workflow you are describing.   Stan   ... View more

@BPI Editor,   This can occur with a video driver issue, I think affecting Macs. Check your driver version and consider reinstalling if it is the most recent. I am on PC, and not an expert in Macs.

Ann, Ah.

Mafalda,   Thanks for the response. That is helpful. I do understand how explaining your workflow is difficult, particularly since what you see can change.   I like your workflow of using one audio source for the transcription. Is that also the source for the audio to be used in the final export?   I asked about your statement that the "transcript comes along without text-to-time connection." Your description that you are copying from one sequence to another is helpful. But I still need to understand what you think is incorrect about what you are seeing. Is there an audio sync problem? In other words, does what you hear not match the transcript? Or does the timecode in the transcript not match what you are expecting?   Stan   ... View more
